Erez. I feel this will take some time to complete, even for an experienced FS designer. This is Whitey's first project & it would be silly to add stress by announcing a deadline or completion date. IMHO
The animation will be difficult enough to sort out. Then there's the texturing & DVC, not to mention the flight dynamics & maybe a 2D panel. People are very demanding & critical these days even with freeware. All this takes time if it's be to done properly.

Whitey. Don't think I'm trying to put you off. Wink

Well with all this animating it will take a while. Smiley  I've just got the gear animated, but I need to know if there's anything special about the way they collapse and fold out?  Does the nose gear stay out longer than the rear gear for expample?  I guess you could find out little stuff like that for me Erez...also, if you can make .AIR files, you could make an accurate one becasue I really don't a clue how the thing flies or it's statistics or stuff...and I don't know how to make Flght Dynamics to boot...

And don't expect much work to done lately.  I've got exams starting on Tuesday and all the way through May.  A week after that I go on holiday for a fortnight.  So, it'll be a while before anything is even done to it.  LOL. Wink

Oh sorry, didn't meant to stress you Whitey Wink
Air file? I don't have a clue how to do it...... for my Lavi I guess I'll ask permission to take an F-16 one and change it a bit at Fsedit. You can try doing lie me, take a similar aircraft's air file and modify it Smiley
About the gears.... You will need to ask someone who is working on the F-4 as a technician, maybe my cousin will get in touch with me(that will take a lot of time) or Hagar will ask her friend.

You seem to have the wrong impression about me for some reason. This is Hagar in all his glory. A big hairy Viking. LOL  Grin

I'll ask my friend for details on the gear retraction/extension sequence. He should be able to help but it might be a while.
